Penn's Clave 2005

When are you arriving? Wouldn't be the same if I didn't get to fish with
your kitchen sink at least once. :^)

Depends on when my friends plane gets in from LA. Will definately fish
together.

Stan - are you guys getting in at a decent time on Friday? I suspect
the drake hatch will be on by then so you'll want to arrive early
enough to stake out a decent streamside location late afternoon
sometime. If it is just beginning, you'll want to be downstream
somewhere, maybe Weikert, or Cherry Run. It will be a bit different
than you are used to, it will be a Carnivale atmosphere, including
all of the people. Keep an eye on the reports through, you should
be able to get stream reports that will confirm if the hatch is on.

Mike: we usually get there at about 2 (even though we plan on being there at
noon). If we skip the on-the-road breakfast in Fishkill we can make better
time. If it means getting to Weikert in time to stake out a spot, well,
I'll pack some go food and save the stop. As the day approaches, lets make
sure to set up a meeting place.

Heh, I dunno. I haven't changed much except in attitude. Are you going
down next weekend? I could be convinced to meet you somewhere in CT if you
could use a passenger.

Have you seen the Hemlock Acres web site? That have a photo of a bear in
the tenting area...
http://www.hemlockacrescampground.com/ (loads very slow for me). My
reservation and travel plans are complete. Jim and I will be there the 27th
through June 4.


Loaded so slowly for me that I gave up on it. Their Web designer just
isn't exactly current with things, is he / she? It seems to have been
the pics that were the problem. They aren't large, so they must have
been in some format that takes forever.

Now, I've never understood marketing, but does it seem a trifle... odd...
that a campground would publish a picture of a bear wandering past a picnic
table in their camp, in broad daylight? I enjoy Brother Bruin as much as
the next guy, but not necessarily in camp.

(or is that a picture of Wolfgang retreating? :-)

It might save them on lawsuits if someone gets injured or killed by
the bear. "Well, duh, we show the picture of it wandering around
right on our page." Until they get the lawyer for the plaintiff
saying, "Doesn't that imply that it's a tame bear or under control by
the campground owner?" Unfortunately that's what some inexperienced
people actually will think. They'd better have some nice release
forms signed by all campers as they check in.

BTW, is there a program or something to do this? I made a mistake way up
at the top and had to change nearly the whole damn thing,
letter-by-letter. :-)

Is there a firm date for Penn's Clave 2005? I scheduled to have the
first week of June off per a posting I found via a Google search. Who is
the official Clave Meister this year?


Yes, the dates about 28 May to 5/6 June (the 6th is a holiday). Tuesday the
31st is the standard barley stew and raffle night (any one got some bear
meat?). The clave is centered on Coburn, PA and the environs.
As always, Clavemeister Tom Littleton is the host with the most. As it sits
right now, it looks like he don't do **** any more and is pretty much
retired. In all honesty, he does a ton of stuff in the background (cabins,
ties flies, appears at fly shop openings), so it just looks like he don't do
****. During the clave, we all think we got the creek sussed out (and we're
wrong), so we just let him go off and fish and raid his fly stocks whilst
he's away.


As I cannot make it until Tuesday, I plan "tent" camp. Does the
campsite have showers?

uh, i have been advised by very reliable sources from dea, atf, and ins,
that any attempt of yours to travel from tons further north than the
maryland border will be...intercepted.

not that this is not heavy handed, and even unconstitutional...but there
you have it.
